A convicted arsonist schemes to get out of prison by convincing his debauched wife to seduce his retirement-ready parole officer in director John J. Curran's adaptation of a play by Angus MacLachlan (who also authored the screenplay).

Convicted of setting a fire to make the murder of his grandparents look like an accidental death, Stone will do anything to get out from behind bars, and his wife, Lucetta (Milla Jovovich), is willing to do whatever it takes to help secure her husband's freedom -- including seducing Jack. Meanwhile, Jack's devoted wife, Madylyn (Frances Conroy), has suffered with the emotional weight of her husband's demanding job for far too long. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

    A layered and oblique story with spiritual overtones and strong performances. It's also a bit slow and the characters may be too remote to sustain the interest of many viewers.

    De Niro & Norton's acting was great but the story went all over the place. I kept waiting for something to be resolved or exciting to happen, but ended without any conclusions or excitement. Very religious undertones. The point was unclear to me throughout the whole movie.

    Top of the line acting. Robert De Niro & Ed Norton go toe to toe in this one. It was just too boring & slow! Milla Jovovich tried to add to this dull movie, but fail short. With a little more suspense, detail, & action, it would've been better. "Da Hood Critic"

    Yes   |   No
